National Junior Pickleball (NJP) has partnered with MyJourney Pickleball (MJP) to introduce Coach-Assigned DUPR Ratings for players aged 8 to 18. Using the My DUPR Coach app, certified coaches review match videos to assign official ratings before players enter NJP events. This system ensures fair and competitive matchups, helps players enter tournaments with trusted ratings even before playing their first game, and supports coaches and families in tracking development.
This collaboration aims to grow junior pickleball by providing a scalable, remote, and reliable rating process that benefits players, coaches, and parents alike. Beyond competition, NJP focuses on building a supportive community for young athletes nationwide. MyJourney Pickleball’s tools also help coaches and clubs develop players and generate revenue, fostering the sport’s growth and accessibility for the next generation.
